    ^This is the info from his website :) This one

    First of all. HAABA HAABA, HE IS ONE MOTHERFUCKING CUTIE. (seriously, give me your drawing skills, Rumple, Roko stole my heart)

    Can we please also notice how hardcore his name looks? Sooon Roko...
    Alright, enough of this.

    (those were all first hand impressions btw)


    This is quite an interesting bank. The creators state it's an "VCV CVVC" voicebank.
    What is that, you might ask (I did)
    Well, apart from handling romaji and hiragana CV, he can also sing VCV and CVVC! It's a very versatile voicebank.

    His VCV sounds very much like a normal VCV (of course). I have no experience with CVVC, but whatever the f*** I did, it still sounded pretty fluent! Great job!
    His vowels in CV were hard to blend (at least using crossfade), but it might just have been the song.

    There is one thing that annoys me to no end. I would like to say, I am in no way being racist, but the accent really annoys me. His "u"'s are pronounced in that Spanish/Portuguese/Latin American/You get my point way, and it just kind of ruins the voicebank for me. I am no way fluent in Japanese either, so I don't think this is all too horrible. Some people even like the accents! It's a problem that can easily be fixed for the next Japanese voicebank (if there will be one), so I highly suggest maybe listening to some native Japanese and trying to get the sound right.
    The overall accent makes the voice a little "heavy" to listen to, but I honestly like it a bit, so meh, you shouldn't change the way you speak.

    Roko has a very nice voice. It's manly, but not too overly manly. It's young and nice, and I'm sure his voice could fit on a lot of songs. I tried using him on WAVEFILE, and honestly just thought it was adorable.

    Also do take note he is on the lower range of male voices, so remember to move the notes down one octave~ (lol me)

    His oto seems to work perfectly almost everywhere, I only had a few places where the song was a tab bit too fast for his oto (should be solvable with consonant velocity)

    Scores:
    Accent: 5/10
    This is easily fixable, so you guys better fix it and make Roko perfect.
    Easy-to-use: 10/10
    His combined CV, VCV and CV-VC makes him perfect for both beginners and advanced users. It's like his voicebank always has something new to show.
    Quality: 8/10
    No problems here whatsoever.
    Oto: 9/10
    Apart from a few slurred syllables every once in a while, this was pretty damn near to perfect (and it can easily be fixed with editing)

    Overall: A good, deep male. He is very good at all round work, and this makes him a reliable UTAU. Go download him now.
